This Day

I will never forget where I was on this morning Eight years ago. 

I had decided to go to my favorite place to watch the sunrise. 

I knew that day was special.

I knew that I was going to be an aunt again, and this time it would be a girl!!

I also knew I had to work.

So early in the morning I was up before the sun.

I went to my place and sat and as the sun rose I quietly sang my favorite lullabies and put the finishing touches on Serenity Anne Crousore's baby afghan.

9/11 is such a sad day for so many,

for me it is a beautiful day which I choose to spend in celebration.

Even when I can't be there physically, 

I always celebrate this day.

I always celebrate this girls life.

I love being her aunt.

Someday we will live closer and I hope we will be good friends.

Happy Birthday Serenity!!!
